139: Chapter 139 Imperial City Bones, Qin Family Blood, The Battle Flag Never Falls, the Immortal Ancient Empire Never Dies

The Eternal One.

Existing as long as heaven and earth.

Undying and indestructible.

This is a gap in life forms; none but an Longevity Being can oppose it... The ultimate pressure was suffocating.

The center of the Heavenly Abyss.

The Tenth Ancestor of the Qin Family stood side by side with the Emperors of various races who gathered behind them.

Ahead, the massive phantom of the Eternal One stood tall, supporting the heavens, looking down with eyes devoid of any emotion.

That gaze was no different from looking at ants.

“Kneel and submit!”

“And you may live!”

A voice like heavenly thunder resounded through the world.

It was unhurried.

“The Imperial City never bends its knees!”

A few simple words were the response from the Qin Family Ancient Ancestor, and indeed the response of the entire Qin Family, the whole Imperial City, and even the entire Immortal Ancient!

The Eternal One scrutinized him indifferently. “You are his descendant.”

Everyone was stunned and looked toward the Qin Family Ancient Ancestor.

Someone remembered by an Eternal One must surely be an Longevity Being.

The various clans of the Imperial City had long suspected this.

The Qin Family Ancient Ancestor was very likely the actual child of a true Longevity Being.

Now, it was finally confirmed by the mouth of the Eternal One from the Foreign Realm.

Holding the longevity battle flag, the Qin Family Ancient Ancestor spoke with a hint of nostalgia.

“In the battle of yesteryear, my parents, brothers, and sisters fought for Immortal Ancient and all perished. My Aptitude was dull, and I had no chance of Immortal Ascension; I didn't even have the qualifications to step onto the battlefield and was only fit to be protected behind others...”

“Having survived until now, I finally have the qualifications to face the enemies my father and brothers fought in the past...”

The Eternal One’s eyes remained placid. “Merely because of some old matters. If not for that, mere ants like you would have long since been destroyed.”

“Immortal Ancient will eventually fall.”

“Kneel!”

“Or die!”

“I give you ten breaths.”

Indifference, contempt, utter disregard... The Emperors of Immortal Ancient felt indignant, but they were helpless.

An Eternal One... even if they all attacked together, they couldn't withstand a single blow... The Qin Family Ancient Ancestor held the longevity battle flag, his voice spreading through the Heavenly Abyss and the Imperial City.

“People of the Imperial City.”

“We can go to our deaths, but we will never live in disgrace!”

“So what if you are an Eternal One?”

“If you hadn't relied on numbers, you would have been slain by my father and brothers years ago!”

“The Imperial City has been guarded by generations of Everlasting ancestors; what right does a despicable alien like you have to lay a finger on it?”

The Eternal One's eyes finally showed a slight change.

“Stubborn and foolish.”

“Then die.”

The pressure rushed forward, but the Qin Family Ancient Ancestor showed no fear.

“Where are the disciples of the Qin Family?”

“Are you willing to die for all living beings?”

As the voice fell, blood Qi suddenly ignited on the bodies of the remaining eight Old Ancestors of the Qin Family.

“Our remnant bodies are willing to sacrifice ourselves for the creatures of heaven and earth, seeking only to trade for a moment of peace for all living beings!”

The eight of them had determined gazes as their blood Qi converged.

Qin Longevity realized late, his body trembling.

“Old Ancestors, you...!”

The Qin Family Ancient Ancestor laughed loudly. “Longevity, you are still young and possess extraordinary talent. We are at peace leaving the Qin Family to you.”

The words fell.

An incredibly powerful surge of blood Qi shot into the sky.

The voice of the Qin Family Ancient Ancestor echoed through the world.

“Immortal Ancient suffers, and the Imperial City is in peril. We, the unworthy descendants of the Qin Family, are powerless to protect them and only seek the aid of our ancestors...”

“We invite!”

“The heroic spirits of our ancestors!!”

Rumble!!!

The Imperial City shook violently!

A beam of immortal light shot up from the deepest part of the Imperial City.

In the haze, there was a fleeting glimpse.

Everyone caught that trace of immortal radiance.

That was a bone... an Immortal Bone belonging to an Longevity Being of the Qin Family...!!

“We, the incompetent descendants, use these remnant bodies to implore our ancestors to slay the enemy!!!”

Nine streaks of blood Qi shot into the sky and merged into that Immortal Bone.

In an instant, the immortal light became vast.

The Aura of an Longevity Being overwhelmed everything, sweeping through the Imperial City.

The figures of the Nine Ancestors of the Qin Family converged and entered the immortal light, condensing into a sky-reaching shadow that stood against the Eternal One.

Snow Princess’s body trembled, and she murmured.

“Old man...”

She flashed forward, taking the longevity battle flag and planting it into the vast Heavenly Abyss.

“Imperial City Bone, Qin Family Blood, the battle flag never falls, Immortal Ancient never perishes!”

“Kill them!!!”

Qin Longevity’s eyes were blood-red, and the killing intent on him could no longer be suppressed.

The nine Ancient Ancestors sacrificed their blood to gain a slim chance for the Imperial City... He wanted to hack those aliens into a thousand pieces!

Boom!

After a brief pause, the great battle resumed.

The Eternal One let out a sigh.

“It’s you. You did indeed leave a backup plan.”

The phantom of the Longevity Being did not speak, only instinctively striking forward.

“Unfortunately, it’s just a single bone; what can it possibly do?”

The Eternal Aura erupted violently, clashing with the Everlasting power.

Terrifying fluctuations swept through the entire Heavenly Abyss.

The gazes of all living beings were cast toward the center of the Heavenly Abyss.

As soon as a victor was decided there, everything would be settled.

Everlasting and Eternal were beings of the same Realm.

It was hard to distinguish a winner.

However.

In the center of the Heavenly Abyss, after only a few exchanges between the two.

The phantom of the Longevity Being showed signs of dissipating.

Snow Princess’s expression changed, and the group of Emperors were even more shocked.

“Why is this happening?”

Qin Longevity said coldly, “It’s what the Feng Family and Zhuo Family did to the Imperial City formation in collusion with the Foreign Realm.”

He finally remembered what Bai Xiyin had said.

That mysterious eyeball must have been absorbing the power from within the Immortal Bone!

“Traitors!”

“They deserve to die!”

Boundless fury flashed in Snow Princess’s eyes.

An Immortal Bell floated above her head, erupting with an unimaginably terrifying Aura.

“Kill!”

“Kill as many as we can!”

“Even if the Imperial City collapses and Immortal Ancient is destroyed, the Eternal Foreign Realm must pay a price in blood!”

Emperor power surged.

Emperors were constantly shedding blood.

Everyone’s eyes were red with slaughter.

Heaven and earth wept continuously; those were the phenomena of Emperors falling.

The phantom of the Longevity Being became increasingly dim.

The halberd in the Eternal One’s hand glowed with blood-red light, his voice like rolling thunder: “A mere remnant bone, struggling in its death throes.”

“Break!”

The halberd swept across with heaven-shaking momentum, actually splitting the Heavenly Abyss in two.

The phantom of the Longevity Being raised a hand.

But in the end, it couldn't withstand it; it was slashed by the halberd and instantly collapsed.

Nine clumps of essence blood and the Immortal Bone fell simultaneously.

“No—!”

Qin Longevity raised his hand to catch the essence blood and the Immortal Bone.

An irrepressible Aura of grief spread out.

“Old Ancestors.”

“Longevity will defend the Imperial City to the death!”

The Eternal One’s eyes swept over them as if looking at ants.

“The Imperial City shall be destroyed today.”

He raised his hand and grabbed toward the longevity battle flag, intending to snap it.

“Don't you dare!!!”

Snow Princess, Qin Longevity, and the other Emperors stepped forward together, giving their all to stop that terrifying Aura.

However.

It was completely futile.

The gap was like a chasm that no one could cross.

The Eternal Aura instantly enveloped all the Emperors and even all the creatures of Immortal Ancient.

At this moment.

Everyone felt the coldness of death.

Like lambs to the slaughter.

The butcher's knife was already at their throats... “Those who are stubborn shall die!”

The Eternal One’s Aura swept toward them, enough to destroy heaven and earth.

Everyone closed their eyes in despair... “Damn it!”

“It’s you!”

In the moment of despair, a clap of thunder exploded!

In the sky, a figure in green robes manifested, descending from the heavens and slowly landing beside the longevity battle flag.

His body emitted an incredibly mysterious chaos aura.

The pressure from the Eternal One instantly vanished.

The creatures of Immortal Ancient opened their eyes one after another... “We... didn't die...?”

The Eternal One’s expression finally shifted, and he spoke in a deep voice.

“Who are you?”

Snow Princess, Qin Longevity, the Emperors, and everyone else looked at that figure with profound disbelief in their eyes.

“He is... Qin Tian...!”

“The Qin Tian who became famous in the Imperial City not long ago...!”

“Why... is he here...?”

...
